Show me ONE bank, not a union, a bank!

You jumped into my post about BANKS and tried to make it fit your dumb argument.

For all intents and purposes, a credit union can be described as a bank in this debate.


I'm not debating, I will not change my original thought about banks. They do things differently. You are debating yourself. A bank is a bank...I did not bring the credit unions into my post for a reason, and I could care less how much they mimic banks' services.

It was MY post, not yours, so the semantics part was done by you! God you're dumb

Just shut up already. Congrats on a bank not doing it, big institutions that provide banking doing it. You win. Move on.

I never knew they even offered 72 month loans on cars (new or used).

72 months is common . If you get a low interest rate say 1-2 percent , you have a lower note and only end up paying 1300 in interest or so financing 19 k . Now if you finance 35 and up with a high rate you're dumb / co worker got a 22 % interest rate for 6 years financing 23 k

People don't understand that the term isn't the issue, it's the rate.

Hell, some people would be inclined to finance a car for 2% for 84 and actually like the idea if they felt they could invest the money the would have paid cash for the car and actually come out ahead in 84 months even after paying the interest.

I was walking around a bass boat dealer's lot a month or so ago. They were offering 144 month financing at 7.5%

Did he have to go talk to his manager to see if they could throw in the clear coat for $500?

The thing to remember is when you have a good credit score you have the leverage. Get an approval from a bank or credit union before you go and use that against them.

3.79% is very solid for any term.


I just financed a new car for 2.24% so I would say that is still not ideal. Shop around for your own financing before stepping foot in the dealership, it is in your own best interest.

For sure.

And there is tons of 0% floating around from manufacturers right now, but make sure you realize you're giving up a bunch of rebates in most cases so be sure to do the math.

Many times it's best to find a really low rate (as in 2.24%) and take the rebates.

Basically just do your damn homework before you go in there and be cordial and get the deal you want.

Not that difficult.
